Hello,
We are using your service to receive flight alerts from FlightAware and integrate to our system. Mostly we need Schedule and Actual departure and arrival time.
Today we received an alert for flight MAS112 and we saw that the actual arrival time stated is wrong. Please see the raw data that I retrieved from the log.

If you check actualdeparturetime and actualarrivaltime you will find them that they are same! I have chatted with the support and he indicated that the time is unknown. But my question is that if a time is unknown then should not it be remain empty (or anything else).
Could you please comment on this?
Thanks.
